DEATH OF Ex-GOV. SMITH.
Sketch of Long and Erenuai P''.;fcat
Career.

Special Dispatch 10 The Baltimore S'1'
WARRENToN, VA, May IS I-Gov.
VIM. Smith died here this morning t7.4O.
He was born in King George county, and
had he been spared until September 6 he
would have completed the ninetieth year of
his age. For .'iree score years and ten he
has been very rrominently identified with
State and nat political affairs, and ex-
celled as a deba;cr upon the hastings. He
was elected ~ Congress in 1912, and was
twice Governor of Virginia, being first
elected in 1913, and his second term cover
ed the notable last years of the civil war.
At the age of GO years he entered the Con-
federate army, and distinguished himself
for his sublime daring on the battlefield.
He was badly wounded at Sharpsburg, and
afterwards made brigadier- general, achiev-
ing for himself and brigade great distinc-
ton. In 1919 Ex-Governor Smith became
a citizen of California, and at once became
prominent as a democratic leader. David
Broderick, afterwards Senator from Cali
fornia. was Jealous of Ex-Governor Smiths
influence and sought to hinder him, which
resulted in duel between James Caleb
Smith, a son of the Ex-Governor, and Bro
derrick. 1t occurred at Sacramento, and
was witnessed by five thousand people.
Broderick was struck five times, the balls
lodging in his watch, which he had failed
to remove from his fob. On his return to
Virginia the Ex-Governor was elected Rep
resentatiye in Congress, and continued as
such until the breaking out of the civil
war. Two sons and daughter survive
him. The elder son, Col. Thos. Smith, is
United States district attorney for New
Mexico. Capt Fredk. Smith, the other
son, is a prominent citizen of Arizona Ter
ritory VIM. Smith, his first-born son, was,
while serving as a militiaman in the Uni
ted States navy, lost in the Indian ocean.
Another son, Col. Austin Smith, was killed
at Seven Pines, having just been released
from Federal prison few days before.
A sister, Mrs. Anna Maria johnson, the
wife of the chaplain of Hampton Brigade,
died in South Carolina last week. The re-
mains will be carried to Richmond Friday
and placed in the family vault at Holly
wood Cemetery. The board of aldermen
of Warrenton this afternoon passed resolu-
tons of respect to his memory, and tonight
the citizens generally met at the court
house to testify their high appreciation of
his services as a citizen, statesman and pa
triot
